Blogg 21/06/2012 Pleasant day…

 

 

Weather was great today!!! We actually got 1” of rain last nite. A bunch of small storms all bunched together. I went to bed with thunder, lightning, and rain. Today it never got to 90F. The next 10 days are hot and dry. Hope that changes.

 

I took Elly to Applebee’s for a birthday dinner for her. Good food and better visit. While we were eating a large number of families came in and they all had service dogs with them. The dogs are trained in Concordia KS. The kids are supposed to 13 yrs. old to get a dog but the little boy who sat near us in only 10 yrs. old. Got an order from his doctor. Most of the dogs were labs but two were similar to St. Bernards. They were gorgeous. The little boy next to us had a Border Collie. For more info about the dogs, read here.

 

 

After lunch I did some shopping at Target. They used to have decent clothing but they do not even have a simple pair of black slacks. Why even look there? They have thousands of outfits for teens but not much else.

 

 

I went to Marquette to deliver a new phone to Chris. He was jogging and his phone flew out of his pocket. The whole phone was full of cracks. The slide show above is photos I took there today. And they are all taken with my new iPhone 4S. Takes awesome photos. Even HDR photos. Cool!

Blogg 11/05/2012 Rain…

 

 

Weather has been great. Cool, cloudy, no wind. And tonite we had rain. A heavy downpour for a while. Love it. Hope more develops overnite.

 

 

This morning was my Swedish group in Lindsborg. We had a program about the Bohuslän area. Very interesting. Not many there but that is ok. We had fun. Those that missed, their loss.

 

 

I took myself out to eat at Jalisco’s, Third time this week. I love the food but really love the people. They are just very nice to me. Need that sometimes.

Sort of dreading the weekend. Working both days at the Red Barn Studio in Lindsborg. Hoping for a very very quiet weekend. Sunday is Mother’s Day in the US. No celebration this weekend for me. And no lunch out. Probably won’t eat out sunday evening either. Oh well. It will be fine.

I stopped on Coronado Heights to take photos on the way home. The yucca plants were blooming. Very cool to see. And a few other wild flowers also. And then my camera’s batteries died. Again. Will go back soon!

Blogg 30/04/2012 Last day of april…

 

 

Weather has been awesome. Fairly cool during the day. Cool and perfect sleeping at nite. I love it. Makes me hate --- and dread --- summer all the more.

 

Yesterday we had a bit of fog and mist. Wish it had lasted all day. But when I got home, there was still a few rain drops on my peonies. Lovely.

 

Last week was not a good week for me. I sneezed constantly on tuesday and wednesday. It felt totally like my allergies. Then wednesday nite I got very ill with a cold. Miserable. I ran a fever of 100+ on thursday and thursday nite. I missed a really fun and FREE lunch on thursday. And I had a good friend take over my Swedish group on friday. I was so worried about the weekend. I had promised to work 6 hours on saturday at the Red Barn Studio in Lindsborg. It was artist open house weekend. I did make it to work. Not a particularly busy day, but rather steady. So I had lots of time to rest. I still cough occasionally but feel pretty good. Mostly tired after being sick for 3 days and a very busy weekend.

 

Tonite I had a docent meeting at the Red Barn Studio in Lindsborg. We saw photos of some of Lester Raymer’s religious work in various churches in Kansas and a couple of other states. Need to take a road trip to see these for real. Awesome!!! A good meeting.

 

After my meeting I stopped at the Meditation Garden at the Methodist Church next door to photograph a few flowers. I have started using my older camera again. Far better photos than my small newer one.

 

Tonite there was some severe storms to the south of us. We have a bit of lightning and thunder and very light rain. A disappointing thunderstorm. Still chances for rain for the next 2 days.

Blogg 23/04/2012 Jalisco’s, friends, Coronado Hts, memories…

 

 

Weather has beautiful!!! Mild and even cool at nite. But it is to change for the next 2 days. Summer warm. Ick and double ick. Supposed to be 90F. But then cooler for a couple of days and rain. That will be better.

 

Today I met Sally, Richea and Maxxum for lunch. Of course, we ate at Jalisco’s. I even stepped out of the box and ordered something totally new. I usually get Arroz con pollo. But today I tried La Favorita. It was pretty good. A nice lunch. It is Richea’s last ‘free’ week. She returns to work next monday. Decided we need to meet another day this week also. (-;

 

On the way home, I drove up to Coronado Heights. Gorgeous views from the top. There was another car up top but I saw no one. I did not get out of my car. I trust no one. I wanted to walk about but not when I am there alone. I took a few photos.

 

Then I drove around the Smoky Hill Cemetery. The peonies are blooming. And a few irises. It was lovely and quiet. I love being there. Restores my soul.

 

 

 

At home things fell apart. Today was the birthday of someone very special to me. She passed this last year. I just cannot stop crying. I wish I could go back and have a redo but that is not possible. And I hope she knows how much I loved her. Things move forward. And life……well, it is what it is.

 

Watching Two and a Half Men. I just love Ashton Kutcher. He is adorable. Episode had him playing with a little girl. So cute. I have a friend that looks just like him. Rather cool.
